Green olive falafel sauce?

We went for lunch last week in a Mediterranean restaurant. In general the meal was pretty amazing but there was this one particular sauce for the falafel that seemed to be made of green olives that blew my mind and had me and my wife fighting for the last bits. But I've never seen this sauce before (at least that I can remember), so was wondering if anyone knows what it is? Is it standard? What kind of olives were they likely to be?
The texture was thickish, like tapenade, although very different flavor profile. I don't know if the restaurant had a particular national heritage at work in how they do all the dishes, although I believe the owners/cooks are from Israel.
